In this embodiment, a block type indicator light matrix is provided, and fig. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a structure of the block type indicator light matrix according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 1, the block type indicator light matrix 10 includes: a first matrix 12, a second matrix 14 and a control device 16; a first indicator light is arranged on a first single-row light bar of the first row matrix 12, and the first indicator light is powered by a row pin and a first column pin; a second indicator light is arranged on a second single-row light bar of the second matrix 14, and the second indicator light is powered by the row pins and the second row pins; the rows in the first matrix 12 are connected through a first connecting piece, and the rows in the second matrix 14 are connected through a second connecting piece; wherein, the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece form a central connecting piece; the control device 16 is used to implement a control method for the matrix of segmented indicator lights 10.

In the present embodiment, a control method of a block type indicator light matrix 10 is provided, and fig. 2 is a flowchart of a control method of a block type indicator light matrix according to an embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 2, the flowchart includes the following steps:

step S202, the control device 16 controls the display adjustment of the first indicator light through the row pins and the first column pins; the segmented indicator lamp matrix comprises a first matrix 12 and a second matrix 14; the first indicator light is disposed on the first row of light bars of the first matrix 12, and the first indicator light is commonly powered by the row pins and the first column pins. It should be noted that the control device 16 may be configured as a module such as a single chip microcomputer.

Step S204, the control device 16 controls the display adjustment of the second indicator light through the row pin and the second row pin; wherein, the second indicator light is arranged on the second single-row light bar of the second matrix 14; the second indicator light is powered by the row pin and the second row pin together; the rows in the first matrix 12 are connected through a first connecting piece, and the rows in the second matrix 14 are connected through a second connecting piece; the first connecting piece and the second connecting piece form a central connecting piece.

It should be noted that all the row pins are independent on the central connection line, and respectively control the connection of different rows, but all the first row pins are connected to each other, and all the second row pins are connected to each other, when a plurality of single-row light bars are connected to the central connection member, each of the single-row light bars is connected to the same-column pins on the central connection member to form a column matrix.

In which, when a human eye views an object, images on a retina, and inputs into a human brain through an optic nerve, the image of the object is sensed, but when the object is removed, the impression of the object by the optic nerve does not immediately disappear, but lasts for a period of 0.1 to 0.4 seconds, and this property of the human eye is called "persistence of vision of the eye". We can know that as long as the rate of object change is faster than 0.1 second, human eyes will be identified as continuous motion;

by utilizing the principle, when a plurality of point locations need to be lightened simultaneously, as long as the change rate is fast enough, even if the point locations are lightened respectively, the point locations can be identified as being lightened simultaneously by human eyes, and the working rate of the singlechip can reach dozens of megabytes per second and is far faster than the 0.1 second limit of ten times per second; therefore, different points are sequentially lightened by using the phenomenon of vision persistence, and the effect of simultaneous lightening can be realized by continuously changing and continuously circulating.

Because the number of pins of the control device 16 is limited, for example, the number of pins of 51 single chip chips is 40, and the number of point locations to be controlled is smaller than that actually needed, a matrix control is adopted to replace a direct control in control logic, that is, the point locations to be controlled are arranged according to matrix positions; connecting the positive and negative poles of the battery to each other horizontally and longitudinally, wherein all the positive poles in the same row are controlled by one pin, and the negative poles in the same column are controlled by another pin, for example, the pin in the row is set as the positive pole, and the pins in the first column and the pins in the second column are both set as the negative poles; or the row pin is set as a cathode, and the first column pin and the second column pin are both set as anodes; therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the display of the indicator lights of the block indicator light matrix 10 is performed by supplying positive power to the row indicator lights of the whole row through one row pin, then different points on the row belong to different columns, the indicator lights of the different columns are respectively connected to the pins of the different columns, the pins of the corresponding columns are controlled to be connected to the negative electrode, and the positive and negative connection can be realized by combining the positive power supply of the whole row, so that the display adjustment of any point position on the row is realized.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a dot matrix according to the related art, as shown in fig. 3, which is an 8 × 8 matrix, and by controlling the matrix, 64 dots can be controlled by 16 pins in total; the singlechip is used for controlling any row and any column to be simultaneously connected, so that the control of the corresponding point position can be realized, and other point positions cannot be connected;
